In 1959, the government of Egypt was working on a plan to build a dam on the River Nile. It was called the Aswan Dam, and it was intended to generate electricity and allow the river water to be used for agriculture. There was one big problem with the plan, though. The dam would flood a nearby valley that contained ancient Egyptian treasures, including two enormous stone temples. It can be difficult for governments to choose culture and history over economics. However, if countries always made decisions like this, the majority of the world's ancient sites would end up being destroyed. Luckily, UNESCO stepped in. They formed a committee that tried to convince Egypt to protect its ancient treasures. With support from many countries, they were finally successful. The huge temples were carefully removed from their original site and moved to a safe location so that the dam could be built. After their success in saving the temples in Egypt, UNESCO went on to save more sites around the world. They protected lagoons in Venice, ruins in Pakistan, and temples in Indonesia. With industrialisation changing the world rapidly, there were many sites that needed to be saved. Eventually, UNESCO formed the World Heritage Organisation to protect important natural and historic sites wherever it was necessary. By now, the World Heritage Organisation has protected hundreds of sites ranging from beautiful natural islands to buildings in large cities and ancient ruins. If you're able to visit any of the many protected sites, you'll agree it was worth it. 38. What is the best title for the passage? A. UNESCO C. UNESCO to develop B. UNESCO to succeed D.

Egypt was planning to create a dam right on top of an ancient temple. D. When the dam flooded a valley, several treasures were discovered. 42.

It believes that we can limit the harmful effects of greenhouse gases. It also says if we use technology and have the right strategies to protect the ozone layer, the atmosphere will not be affected badly. The committee indicates that we can keep our Earth safe by changing the way we use energy around the world. Most important is to introduce more fuel-efficient vehicles and household goods. For this to happen, individuals need to change their lifestyles and spending patterns. Mr. Pete Smith, a member of the committee, says: “We can go a long way to addressing this problem at relatively low costs with a range of options.” He calculates that it would cost less than three per cent of world economic output by 2030. He adds: “We've got a big problem on our hands [but] this report provides governments with a way out." The “big problem” is the damage rising temperatures are doing to the Earth. Increased floods, droughts, rising sea levels, more violent and destructive storms and extinctions of species are just a few things threatening the life of our planet. The report stresses the urgent need for introducing a wide variety of clean technologies. Harlan Watson, head of the U.S. team, warns: “If we continue to do what we are doing, then we are in deep trouble.” VII. READING 1.

Write a paragraph (100-120 words) on the following topic Sample writing Exercising daily helps young people live a healthier life by keeping the body at a healthy weight, and giving them plenty of energy to get through life. One of the main reasons to exercise is to control body weight. Obesity occurs when a person takes in more calories than they use. This can happen by overeating, eating fatty foods, and not being physically active. It has been proven that slower paced exercises, those that last longer, will help a person achieve faster weight loss than the high paced exercises. Another reason to exercise is it boosts energy, and improves moods. Several studies have shown that daily exercise helps improve moods of those suffering from mild to moderate depression. Exercises can also help a person gain confidence, and allow them to get more social interaction. In summary, physical exercise is beneficial to young people, so they should do it regularly.
